Making things happen | We offer market-leading, safe and customer-centric hydraulic solutions for the industrial manufacturing sector.
When downtime isn’t an option you can count on us to ensure efficiency, reliability and safety for your hydraulic systems even in the most demanding of environments.
We contacted Hydraulics Online following the failure of one of our hydraulics pumps, with a view to either overhauling the pump or a replacement. A quote was also sought from a local hydraulics company. Hydraulics Online proved to be the viable option and a new pump was ordered. Technical advice and assistance was first class and we would not hesitate in contacting the company in the future to satisfy our requirements. (Birds Eye)
Whether you work within a major PLC or run your own small business, we can provide the support needed to ensure that your hydraulic plant and machinery deliver around the clock. We can also help you examine ways to reduce hydraulic-related production costs and improve performance and reliability on “tried and tested” production lines; helping you to deliver on strategic goals and business objectives.
A food production company contacted us to “perform a miracle” when a catastrophic failure of a Continental Hydraulics PVR50 vane pump had halted all production. The customer had no suitable spare. The failed unit was delivered to Hydraulics Online in the morning and was turned around as a re-built and fully tested re-conditioned pump within 6 hours. One of our engineers visited the site and fitted the hydraulic pump and production was restored within the hour.
Industrial Manufacturing
Our technical team share over 100 years of combined experience in hydraulics engineering and product sourcing. Plastic injection moulding machines, concrete building materials and equipment, foam moulded components, steel rolling mills, steelworks and industrial waste management are just some of the many industrial applications and manufacturing industries in which we have been involved to date.
Food and Drink Production
Hydraulics Online provides leading hydraulic solutions and hydraulic parts, from over 80 leading brands, to support food production plants, distilleries and breweries worldwide. We are renowned for our tenacious approach to sourcing elusive and even obsolete hydraulic equipment and if we’re unable to supply a part in time, our expert team will specify suitable alternatives that will perform equally well.
Because Hydraulics Online is independent and not tied to any one manufacturer, I know that they are giving us the best solution and the best products for that solution.
